The Top Ten

1A Change is Gonna Come - Sam Cooke

2Anthem - Deep Purple

Especially the chorus and the acoustic guitar riff and the backing vocals - zxm

While smoke on the water,child in time,soldiers of fortune,highway star is remembered but this song is one of the most underrated songs of them,this is a great song with mixture of classical elements and the vocals and keyboards riff(or whatever it calls) sounds very nice and beautiful - zxm

Just listen these lines

If the day would only comeThen you might just appearEven though you'd soon be goneWhen I reached out my hand

If I could see youIf only I could see youTo see if you are laughing or cryingWhen the night winds softly blow - zxm

3Turn! Turn! Turn! - The Byrds

And you can thank the Bible for the lyrics.

While a good beautiful song with beautiful vocals,beautiful guitar riff,lyrics everything's just so perfect to be called a beautiful song,that's why I added this on top of my list - zxm

4Can't Help Falling in Love - Elvis Presley

5Sound of Silence - Simon and Garfunkel

6Suzanne - Leonard Cohen

I added this one by mistake on 70's list, could you please not validate it? Too late... I reported it, and it was finally removed. - Lotuscandy

Oh, that opening, one of the most beutiful openings, after california girls and before in my life - RecklessGreed

7God Only Knows - The Beach Boys

8The Crystal Ship - The Doors

9Don't Think Twice, It's All Right - Bob Dylan

I know his voice may not nice to some people but,this song's music is quite nice - zxm

It would've been more beautiful if they hadn't distorted it by leaving out important verses that completed the entire image - Billyv

The Contenders

11Waterloo Sunset - The Kinks

Especially the riffs - zxm

12The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down - The Band

Joan Baez's cover version was nicer but unfortunately that released in 1971 - zxm

13Be My Baby - The Ronettes

14White Rabbit - Jefferson Airplane

15I Got You Babe - Sonny and Cher

16Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down) - Nancy Sinatra

It was written by Sonny Bono for his then-wife Cher, but I prefer this version and it reminds me Kill Bill. - Lotuscandy

17The Wind Cries Mary - Jimi Hendrix

18California Girls - Beach Boys

19The Girl from Ipanema - Stan Getz

It's a classic of Brazilian bossa nova jazz, written in 1962 by Antonio Carlos Jobim with Portuguese lyrics by Vinicius de Moraes. This 1964 version by Stan Getz featuring Astrud Gilberto and Joao Gilberto, with english lyrics, is still the most known.It is believed to be the second most recorded pop song in history, after "Yesterday" by The Beatles. - Lotuscandy

20Hey Jude - Beatles

The first half of this song is quite good,you know with piano riffs but the ending may not sound nice(beautiful) to some people - zxm

This is a father - daughter duet, I still prefer this version to the Robbie Williams - Nicole Kidman version, which isn't bad, but I prefer the classic. - Lotuscandy

33Pale Blue Eyes - The Velvet Underground

34Stand by Me - Ben E. King

35Feeling Good - Nina Simone

36It's a Man's Man's Man's World - James Brown

38These Days - Nico

From her 1967 solo album "Chelsea Girl", the song was written by Jackson Browne. - Lotuscandy

This is great. the nico songs were my favorites on VU&N, so I love just a solo nico song - RecklessGreed

39Ode to Billie Joe - Bobbie Gentry

40Sealed with a Kiss - Brian Hyland

A great song!

41Bonnie and Clyde - Serge Gainsbourg & Brigitte Bardot

Legendary french duet written by Serge Gainsbourg. It is based on a poem entitled "The Trail's End", written by Bonnie Parker herself, a few weeks before she and Clyde Barrow were shot.I also love the video, it amazes me to think it was recorded almost 50 years ago (1968). - Lotuscandy
